Forum Hadriani

Also known as Municipium Aelium Cananefatium

Forum Hadriani was a Roman town in the Rhine delta, at modern Voorburg near The Hague in the Netherlands. The chief town of the Cananefates, it received market rights under the emperor Hadrian around 121 CE and later the status of a municipium. It was the northernmost Roman town on the European mainland and was largely abandoned in the late 3rd century.
